Today, a police officer came to talk to the kids at my workplace. He asked what they wanted to hear about first. A group of them shouted, "The donuts, tells us about the donuts." Apparently these idiots are the future of my country. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I came through a DUI checkpoint. The trooper noticed some donuts I had. He asked, "Are those donuts?" Jokingly, I replied, "Yes. Why? Are you going to confiscate them?" He didn't see the humor and pulled me off to the side to have a team search my truck. FML
Today, I was pulled over for distracted driving. I'd been eating a donut. Let's just say the officer didn't appreciate being offered one. FML
Today, I had a job interview at the local donut shop. It turns out I misunderstood the position, and that the job was actually to wear a donut costume and wave at cars outside the shop. I was told this after I got hired. FML
Today, I had to go to my 10 year-old son's school to talk about my job being a chef. As I was almost finished, I asked the kids "What would you like to do when you grow up?" Without hesitation one kid replied with a straight face, "Anything but being a douchebag like you." FML
Today, I was at work at a local hot dog chain. A child (about 10, who I've seen there before) came in to order food for his Dad. He orders very excitedly, and I told him he'd be a great worker here when he gets older. He said "oh no, my Dad says I'm too smart to work in a place like this." FML
Today, feeling generous, I bought a dozen donuts for my coworkers. Instead, I ended up taking them into my office and eating all of them in the first hour. FML
Today, I had to go down to the county police department to bail out my kids who thought it would be a good idea to try mugging an ice cream truck driver. FML
Today, I made brownies for my co-workers. My boss called me into his office, and I though he was going to compliment me on the baking. Instead, he talked about how his 5-year-old daughter can make brownies better than me. FML
Today, while I was working at a supermarket, a kid started to cry in line because he couldn't get candy. Since we have free lollipops behind the desk, I gave him one. His mom complained to my manager and said I was grooming her child. FML
Today, my daughter told a police officer to call me because I could get them fired unless they let her off for speeding, spitting at and kicking officers, and damaging police property. I work in a supermarket and have no idea what she was talking about. I can’t fire anyone. FML

I think you're overreacting. They are just kids.

At least they chose a subject the police know about.

I have a feeling they were making fun of the officer, OP. they have a sense of humor, you should be pleased. Too many people have little time for humor in their lives.

Obviously like the OP.. Just kids they either were cracking a joke or didn't know any better

Seriously! No one has a sense of humor. Just too serious all the time! And ay children only know what they're taught by all the older people in their lives...

Unless they're teenagers, then they're probably just being kids and don't know any better.

Haha the donuts.

Well, the donuts are the perk of the job :)

Agreed!!! The perk cannot be risking their lives everyday. :)

Well, the children do actually have a point. I mean, the first thing you always want to know about any job is its compensation. And we all know police officers all over always end up with "hundreds and thousands".

I'm ashamed to be apart of this generation. Rest assured OP not all of us are like this! Just most of us. ;) Tell them that not all officers eat donuts. I'm sure that'll stimulate more brain cells than their bodies have made in a lifetime. FYL

I just realised I might have misinterpreted the 'kids' in the FML. I thought OP's workplace consisted of teenagers. Oops. :) If these were in fact children, then yes, you are overreacting OP. Did you expect them to ask about monthly wages and life 'on the force'?

You realized after you got the down votes? Haha good try....????
ManInTheMachine 20
No, I realised after seeing the comments about them being children and re-reading the FML. I replied in under 10 minutes not in 30, so your argument is invalid. But haha good try...? Idiot.

Right back at you because most of the time, all of your comments are invalid, but you're just a machine, right? It's ok you would have to be human to understand.
ManInTheMachine 20
The fool still speaks? Ok, fucktard. 'Most of my comments are invalid' Well considering 95% of the time my 'invalid' comments are supported by fact, does that mean in your idiotic world, facts are also invalid?...exactly. So shut up, troll. If your IQ were any higher you'd be a dribbling retard. **** off.

Actually on the contrary, I have just been ******* with you this whole time to see how far this could go. My experiment worked perfectly, and thank you for being my test subject. It is amazing how far someone will go to protect their rep over one comment. Haha this has been so much fun and I hope to do this again soon! Good luck and may the odds forever be in your favor!

And what would your enlightened older generation have asked about? Police brutality? The counterproductive DARE program? What? They're just kids. I'm actually surprised that they didn't ask about high speed chases and shootouts. With the violence in today's media, I thought that would be the only thing they'd care about.
